Guest Posted March 27, 2012 Posted March 27, 2012 Does anyone know if it's safe to fly in an unpressurized small plane cabin three months out? Thanks Sue Quote
paul99 Posted March 27, 2012 Posted March 27, 2012 hi sue welcome to btg sorry i havent picked up on your story i beleive you should check with your surgeon i know a commercial flight maybe ok but a light aircarft maybe a different matter as its not pressurised and would be more suppseptable to turbulance which maybe a problem have a look on the web i think in the states companies like life flight and medical repat companies would have the answer for you but i think a phone call to the surgeon's would be a good idea if your given the clearence enjoy Quote

I did ring the specialist today and he signed my waiver so I guess I'm good to go. Not flying for another two weeks, then twice a week for about 5 weeks. Thanks Sue Quote
paul99 Posted March 28, 2012 Posted March 28, 2012 enjoy sue dont forget the pictures on the first flight Quote

Guest Posted March 28, 2012 Posted March 28, 2012 I will have my trusty iPhone with built in camera app. I'm flying on Angelflight for my cancer treatment as I live in a small community and Victoria would be my closest centre. May as well have a good distraction, right? Being I start after the Easter long weekend, will I have to change my flight data sheet to include the 5 lbs of chocolate eggs I plan to eat?? They want to know my height, weight and weight of luggage. Sue Quote
kpaggett Posted April 3, 2012 Posted April 3, 2012 You didn't have an aneurysm right? Then there shouldn't be an issue...but I'm glad you cleared it with your doctor. I hope it's fun. ~Kris Quote
